PROLIFERASI NUKLIR SEBAGAI PENCIPTA PERDAMAIAN DUNIA KONTEMPORER: SEBUAH TINJAUAN LITERATUR
Get PDFNuclear weapons are a form of weapon technology developed that have enormous power. With just a small amount, nuclear weapons can destroy a city through its explosive power and the radiation it emits. The presence of nuclear weapons with all the strength they have and the desire of several countries to develops their nuclear weapons made a debate in International Relations realms. The first opinion states that nuclear proliferation will threaten world stability or peace. Meanwhile, the second opinion is a nuclear proliferation will bring a more peaceful international system. This debate continues today. Through a literature study approach, this article states that the opinion that states nuclear proliferation helps create a more stable and peaceful international world is more relevant to contemporary international politics.Senjata nuklir merupakan suatu bentuk perkembangan teknologi persenjataan dengan menghadirkan senjata yang memiliki kekuatan sangat besar. Hanya dengan jumlah kecil, nuklir dapat menghancurkan sebuah kota melalui daya ledaknya dan radiasi yang dipancarkannya. Kehadiran senjata nuklir dengan segala kekuatan yang dimilikinya tersebut serta keinginan beberapa negara untuk mengembangkan senjata nuklirnya sendiri membuka ruang diskursus baru dalam ilmu politik internasional. Pendapat pertama menyatakan bahwa proliferasi nuklir akan mengancam stabilitas atau perdamaian dunia. Sedangkan pendapat kedua adalah proliferasi nuklir sebagai jawaban upaya mencipatakan dunia yang damai. Perdebatan tersebut terus berlanjut hingga saat ini. Melalui pendekatan studi literature artikel ini menyatakan bahwasanya pendapat yang menyatakan proliferasi nuklir membantu menciptakan dunia internasional yang lebih stabil dan damai relevan dengan konteks politik internasional saat ini
UNITED ARAB EMIRATES - ISRAEL RAPPROCHEMENT: A RATIONAL CHOICE OF EMIRATIS
Get PDFWhen the UAE and Israel decided to normalize diplomatic relations, later known as the Abraham Accords, the decision sparked global
controversy, especially from Islamic countries. One of the countries which vehemently condemned this deal was Iran. Iran viewed the
agreement as a form of betrayal of the Palestinian struggle. However, based on an analysis using the Balance of Threat theory, this article concluded that Iran had in fact caused UAE’s decision to normalize relations. It was because Iran, through its superiority of aggregate power, geographical proximity, and offensive policy character, presented a serious threat to the security of the UAE. Thus, the normalization of relations with Israel was the best and rational choice for the UAE in dealing with the Iranian threat. Through this normalization, the UAE has gained a new partner to jointly counterbalance Iran’s power and help in efforts to strengthen its own defense forces.
Revolution in Military Affairs: Strategi Menghadapi Strategic Disadvantage Singapura

The urgency of having a strong and capable SAF cannot be separated from the multidimensional threats that Singapore has to deal with. China\u27s growing military capability coupled with increased aggressiveness in the South China Sea and relations with two conflicting neighbors are examples of traditional threats facing Singapore. Non-traditional threats, especially terrorism, also haunt Singapore. This article argues that the Revolution in Military Affairs implemented by Singapore is the mitigation of such strategic disadvantage. Through the implementation of the Revolution in Military Affairs which was marked by the acquisition of advanced weaponry technology and followed by changes in military doctrine and organizational adaptation, the SAF has already been transformed into a powerful military in the region

The Implementation of South Korea’s Military Technology Reform in The Perspective of Techno-nationalism
Get PDFRevolution in Military Affairs (RMA) requires fundamental reforms on its 3 main pillars, namely military technology, doctrine, and organizational reform. South Korea is one of the states that has taken steps to initiate the RMA through defense reform policies. South Korea have initiated its own version of RMA by prioritizing the revolution of military technology rather than any other aspects. This article aims to explain why South Korea prioritizes its military modernization through the development of its domestic defense industry. This research applies the concept of military techno-nationalism impulse with a qualitative approach and literature review method to collect data from official documents, websites of the government, journals, and scientific reports. The results of the research indicate that South Korea\u27s choice to prioritize the development of its domestic defense industry is not merely pushed by the urgency to decrease its dependencies toward the United States, but also by the desire to pursue for strategic power to face the North Korean threat as well as other states around the region that full of antagonism atmosphere, to obtain broader economic benefits through the spin-off effect of industrialization, and to gain international prestige as one of the largest arms exporter as well as standing equal with other regional players
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
